It’s easy to see why. This is all part of Turkey’s abandonment of secularism (exemplified by the conversion of Hagia Sophia from a museum to a mosque) and embrace of Islamization. The Qur’an teaches that men are superior to women and should beat those from whom they “fear disobedience”: “Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them.” — Qur’an 4:34
Muhammad’s child bride, Aisha, says in a hadith that Muhammad “struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: ‘Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?’” — Sahih Muslim 2127
“Jerusalem will be conquered, Jews will be wiped out, says Turkish jihadist cleric Nurettin Yıldız,” Nordic Monitor, August 16, 2020:
Jerusalem will be conquered when Turkish women abide by the Charter of Medina (of the Prophet Muhammad in 622) instead of the Istanbul Convention on combatting violence against women, stated Nurettin Yıldız, a jihadist and anti-Semitic Turkish cleric who has called for armed jihad.
…AKP officials are discussing withdrawal from the Istanbul Convention and the annulment of Law No. 6284, enacted following the signing of the convention in 2011. A meeting of the party’s Central Executive Committee (MYK) to decide the fate of the convention scheduled to take place on August 5 was postponed.
The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, the first European treaty specifically targeting violence against women and domestic violence, was opened for signature in May 2011 in Istanbul and entered into force in August 2014. So far 45 Council of Europe member states have signed the convention, while 34 of them have ratified it, with Turkey being the first among the 34 ratifying countries.
Commenting on Turkey’s ratification of the Istanbul Convention, AKP Deputy Chair and former Deputy Prime Minister Numan Kurtulmuş had earlier said it was wrong to become a party to the convention, indicating that the government might consider withdrawing from it.
President Erdoğan’s neo-nationalist (Ulusalcı) and hardline secularist ally Doğu Perinçek, leader of the Homeland Party (Vatan Partisi), has also urged the Turkish government to withdraw from the international accord. Perinçek defined the convention as “a tool of Western imperialist powers to control Turkish society.”…
David Grisez says
I am amazed at the arrogance of these Turkish Imams such as cleric Nurettin Yildiz who teach that Jerusalem will be conquered and the Jewish people destroyed when Turkish Women abide by the Islamic Charter of Medina. It is obvious that Islam treats women badly. Also this Turkish Cleric does not know real history or the Bible. The Jewish people will never be destroyed by Islam.
Robert Porter says
David Grisez – We can be amazed by the arrogance and stupidity of Islamic clerics, but should be equally amazed by the stupidity of Western politicians who allow these mostly disgusting people into their countries.
The total lack of logic in this imam’s thinking should be evident, but meanwhile no one does anything about kicking Turkey and the idiotic Recep Erdogan – Barack Obama’s favourite foreign leader – out of NATO. And Europe allows free passage to Turks into Europe! Islam night be (and is) ‘mental’, but pagan Europe is barely any better. What has rejection of Christianity done for Europe other than render it stupid and visionless? – like idiotic Islam and useless hoards?

How are all these muslims going to be brought to heel now that gender is fluid? And young boys, dressed up like girls don’t count, that’s different. Somehow.
This will never go anywhere in the EU. They are light years ahead of us in the modern world and understand big important things way better then we do, they got this.
Ill just sit here and cling, bitterly.
Francis Weber says
Young boys dressed up like girls is all the rage in Afghanistan and they will be like little pearls in the hearafter.
Muslims love being hypocrits!

Turkey: Ruling party discussing annulment of law combating violence against women
………………
Of course they are. What is more Islamic than beating women?
God, I hate Islam.
mortimer says
Erdolf is opening Pandora’s box. Turkey has seen worse repression under Erdolf than it did under Ataturk!
The worst, I fear, is yet to come. Turkey is headed for a civil war. The secularist Turks will have the last say in this struggle.
gravenimage says
Actually, Ataturk was about as good as it gets in Turkey.
Man of Iblis says
Turkish people are just bigoted people. More than 70% of Turks supported conversion of Hagia Sophia into a mosque. There are no real secularists in Turkey. Don’t consider kemalist fascists as secular, they are no diffirent than Islamists with their bigoted Turkish nationalism which opresses non-Sunnis and non-Turks. Not even 1% sympath for them. They can go to hell with Islamists.
OLD GUY says
Erdogan see’s himself as the ruler of the muslim/islamic dictatorship of the world. Turkey is in beg trouble.
